Waste Management: Peterbilt 520 McNeilus ZR Garbage Truck Working Into The Evening

After filming one of the new CNG 520 ZRs, I went back later in the afternoon and filmed this Diesel 520 collecting on the same route. The driver ended up being one of the coolest guys at WM and one of the friendliest drivers I have met. He knew who I was from the trash driver saying that I was filming him earlier that day. He was super chill and more than happy to let me follow him and talk for a while. I was only planning to grab a short video but I found myself following this truck for two and a half hours. In addition to the extra material from Christmas, he had to take a break because his hydraulic fluid heated up a couple times so he ended up falling two hours behind and finished around 6 PM. I figured I would follow until he finished to get some cool sunset shots. At 5:50, you can see him attempt to stand up a bin but he ended up flipping the whole thing upside down, which is much cooler in my opinion lol. Despite not lid flipping, this truck was pretty speedy. The spread out stops and heavy recycling made this more fun to watch as well. This was definitely a fun one to film and I hope you all enjoy the show!

Huge shoutout to Bernard and his trainee for letting me follow and being so friendly!
